Mid-density FPGA for I/O-intensive designs
The Intel Altera EP4CE30F29C9L is a Cyclone® IV E FPGA with 28848 logic elements and 532 user I/O in a 780-BGA package. It targets applications that need a moderate gate count but high pin-out — think parallel bus interfaces, display controllers, or industrial I/O concentrators where the I/O count drives the package selection. The 608256 total RAM bits provide local block memory for FIFOs or small frame buffers without external SRAM. The commercial temperature grade (0°C to 85°C junction) suits controlled indoor environments like telecom central offices, test equipment, or rack-mount controllers.
532 I/O — routing budget for wide buses
The 532 I/O and 1803 LABs/CLBs support wide bus interfaces and logic functions.
